Directions

  1. Wash the cauliflower and remove the leaves at the bottom. Slice the bottom, if needed, so that the cauliflower sits flat.
  2. Place the whole cauliflower in a dutch oven or large soup kettle and fill with water.
  3. Add 1 teaspoons salt and bring water to a boil.
  4. Reduce heat and simmer until the cauliflower is just tender.
  5. Remove cauliflower and let cool to room temperature.
  6. Pat dry and cover with plastic wrap.
  7. Refrigerate until well chilled.
  8. When ready to serve, remove the whole cauliflower and place it on a serving dish.
  9. "Frost" the cauliflower with the guacamole.
  10. If desired, stir some diced tomato into the guacamole before "frosting" or add the tomatoes at the end by placing them evenly on the guacamole covered cauliflower.
  11. This is especially pretty at Christmas time.
  12. To Serve: Slice into wedges.
